My tie's Cardin (because I can),
these shoes are made by Gucci;
I'd love to watch you dance for me—
Let's see you hoochie-coochie!
The ladies want a bon vivant,
they're often feeling smoochy.
You think me vile, but I've got style—
'cuz I'm a mamamouchi!

Author Notes
Today's word: mamamouchi (n.) someone who believes themselves more important than they really are.
My much-treasured Christmas present for 2017 is a book by Paul Anthony Jones: "The cabinet of linguistic curiosities". Each page contains a descriptive story about some obscure or archaic word. It occurred to me it would be a fun exercise to try and write, each day, a poem featuring the "word of the day" from the book.

Thanks for reading.
